Life and Travel in China

It's a f***ing joke that workers from China are supposed to work in Poland because there is a labor shortage. This is according to the economic information of gazeta.pl. The Ministry of Labor will be looking for construction workers even in the Middle Kingdom. Or maybe Poles should be paid decently? Millions of Poles wander around Europe and even around the world in search of a better life. Are we some kind of exiled nation? We don't have a state? Such a wave of migration is a shame for the government. And I won't be offended at all if China gives me citizenship and I apply for it in a few years. My homeland is always Poland, but not this kind of Poland, more of a utopian one, made of books, poetry, hymns that no longer mean anything today. When there is communist exploitation, they spit on China, but when they transfer it to Polish soil, China is good.

Today I saw something really funny. A typical example of overstaffing. Well, at a metro station, they opened a bakery shop underground (one of them has already gone bankrupt). The store measures approximately 3x2 meters, i.e. 6 square meters. And now guess how many girls work there? If it were in Poland, it would definitely be one person, because why else? And in China? Six girls!!! Shocking!!! They weren't even in the store, they just stood outside in a row and invited customers, after all, if they had stood inside, there wouldn't have been enough space. I must take a photo there.

A Chinese man just sent me Thanksgiving wishes via instant messenger. Damn American marketing has even reached here, what do I care about this holiday? Maybe I should run to the store to buy a turkey? But what pisses me off more is Halloween, I think about All Saints' Day and they come up with Halloween wishes. They have their own Valentine's Day in China (some people don't even remember when), because Valentine's Day is more popular. This America is tiring of me, America everywhere. American music, American films, Iraq is already American, the whole world is one big America. Why do the Chinese go there (sometimes through Canada) when they already have America at home, with its holidays, fast food, cinema, restaurants and cafes, they also have dollars.

Poland is a country with a chronic disease, our homeland has been sick for several years. I wonder if the agony has already started or if Poland will drag on for a while? Overall, it has no future. I'm not surprised that people went abroad, even to China.

I feel most sorry for people who have never been to China, but they keep repeating how poor China is, that the rich are a small percentage in big cities, that everyone works for a bowl of rice, that all goods are cheap and of poor quality. How to say it... a bowl of rice costs PLN 1-2 (converted) in a good restaurant, I don't know anyone who works for that much, because even beggars get more per day. Is it cheap in China? Branded laptops, phones, Chinese shirts (Chinese brand) are often much more expensive than in Poland. Poor quality? Does anyone know that the famous IPod, Nokia phones, Sony Playstation, Nike clothes, Adidas, Samsung products, LG... and much more are produced in the middle country? To whom do we owe the poor quality of products from China on the Polish market? Polish importers who expect the lowest prices because they want to earn a fortune, have a 200% discount, and besides, they cannot supervise production. Someone please think about this too sometime.
